For cities, there’s Google Maps, but if you want to venture out into the great outdoors, you’re still best off with paper maps. Natural Atlas gives you those maps on your computer so you can print them out yourself.

Craigslist has expanded its new maps feature—which it rolled out a few months ago to help apartment hunters find a new place—to include yard sales and flea markets, and other sales listings that are highly location dependent, like garage sales and moving sales.

iOS/Android: If you're about to travel to a location where you know you won't have GPS or cellular service, visit the location in Google Maps on your phone before you leave. Drag and zoom the map area around to cache the map on your phone so you can access it even without signal.

Your Android is always with you, and it's a great tool for tracking your exercise, logging your diet victories and slip-ups, and encouraging you to take your fitness farther. Use these Android apps to monitor your goals for the new year.
